“…Moreover, Pola et al [45] found that the cavitation erosion resistance of AlSi 7 alloys was improved by the ultrasonic treatment. Chen et al [46,47] reported that ultrasonic treatment could reduce the porosity in the alloys, resulting in a better microstructure and improved mechanical properties.…”

Al and Al-5Ti alloys were manufactured by an ultrasonic casting method with a new device, and their ultrasonic cavitation erosion behaviors of Al and Al-5Ti alloys in the distilled water were clarified. The damage mechanism was analyzed by macro photograph, scanning electronic micrograph and three-dimensional morphology, and the results demonstrate that Al-5Ti alloys have better cavitation erosion resistance than Al in terms of the mass loss and the surface damage. The deformation mechanism of Al and Al-5Ti alloys under cavitation erosion is mainly dislocation slip, and the Al3Ti phase enhances the cavitation erosion resistance of Al-5Ti alloys. In addition, the maximum depth of cavitation pits in the Al-5Ti sample is less than that in the Al sample for 31.3%.

“…The physical refinement method not only has a good refining effect but also can effectively homogenize the alloy melt temperature and solute distribution fields [18,19] . Both the refiners and vibrations can improve the solid solubility of the alloying elements in the α-Al matrix [20,21] . This increased solubility improves the mechanical properties of the as-cast and heat treated alloys [22,23] .…”

Al-Cu casting alloys have high strength, good machinability, and excellent heat resistance [1][2][3] . However, Al-Cu alloys usually contain coarse α-Al dendrites and inhomogeneous Al 2 Cu phases, resulting in poor mechanical properties [4,5] . Thus, grain refinement treatments are usually required to improve their microstructure and properties [6][7][8] . Chemical and physical methods are the main grain refining methods for Al alloys. The chemical refinement method, i.e., adding refiners into the alloy, is considered the most effective and practical in the Al processing industry owing to its advantages of fast refinement, convenient operation, and strong adaptability.
